I have drank the beer from the resorts (tap beer) and brushed my teeth with the water and have never had problems. I have been to Mexico about 25 times in the last 5 years so I believe it is safe.

I believe I read in this thread from someone who had seen both areas, that there is more privacy at Gran Caribe, but either way, you probably won't notice onlookers when it comes time (and you can always photoshop them out of your pictures :-) )

How frustrating is it, to try to make someone take money out of your account!! I guess I need to start calling instead of emailing. I haven't recieved the contract or anything....

I feel strange making the deposit without first getting back their signed copy. How did you do it? Thanks! Diana

That's awesome! Everytime I get on here, it seems more and more brides are using him! I just sent an email asking him for his signed copy since I didn't get one w/in a few days. I think he just forgot, but he sent it to me w/in 1 business day w/apologies for not sending it sooner.

I can't say enough about how much I love this store.

Your dress is gorgeous!! That is so sweet that she does a little message for you in blue, too!

I'm sorry they're taking so long w/that hopefully they'll get back to you soon! Have the assigned you a WC, yet? I would just keep emailing until you get the contract. I get the vibe from others' experience that phone calls there don't get you too far. Good luck!

And seriously, the WC's are really slow in responses. I put my deposit down and they didn't even email me a confirmation. I just got the confirmation screen online. I was tired of waiting for the WC to email me back, so I did it on the internet instead. I know they're short a person, but really?

I just got my contract today, so I'm adding myself to the list! Yay!

stevensfiance - 2010 -Royal, Cancun

[shining]

I added myself to the list (April 17 2010) as I was dropped somewhere along the way but i am mainly writing because I have had MAJOR issues with getting a response from the Royal. Angie had been writing us in Nov/ Dec and while she was very slow, we usually got a response. Now it has been weeks that we have not gotten a response from her or anyone else there. I am very nervous as we have about 2 months left and need both answers to some questions we posed and a confirmation that they received our documents.

Does anyone else have a good contact there?

I know many people have said they are slow over emails but get better once you arrive but this is crazy. We booked a long time ago and are bringing many people - you'd think the service would be better. I'm disappointed.

 

Also, FYI, the Royal and the Grand Porto are booked for the whole weekend of April 16-17. The Royal filled up about 3.5months ahead of time and the GP about 2.5months ahead of time so have your guests book as soon as they can!
